I am perplexed at the notion of a Charter Arms revolver with a street price around $600, even if it comes with two cylinders.

I would rather purchase a much less expensive Taurus revolver chambered in .38 Special +P or .357 Magnum and use the cost savings to offset the marginally greater price of .38 Special or .357 Magnum ammunition.

In reply to Geoff "I'm getting too old for this shit" PR. S&W figured it out in 1980 with the Model 547, and it was a K-frame six shooter as well. Unfortunately they discontinued it after only 5 years.

Charter Arms has been doing…moon clip-less(?)…9mm revolvers for years. Do a search for Charter Arms Pit Bull 9mm and you can find links to video reviews showing how it works.

Interesting they figured out how to fire a 9mm revolver *without* moon clips.

I would have been interested in hearing how they pulled that off…
